RELEASE DAY: Turtle Bay by Tiffany King

This gem of a book is out today! If you're a teenager in a small, rural area, how do you exist when your eccentric, free-spirited parents are the town freaks everyone laughs at? For sixteen-year-old Rainbow  Honeywell—or Rain, as she insists on being called—the answer was to become the queen of all pranks. She never wanted to be a troublemaker, but the label quickly stuck when everyone in Huntsville, Kansas, became a target. All she wanted was to deflect the negative attention off her parents, but Rain's plan backfired to the max, landing her in a heap of trouble with the local authorities and expelled from high school. An unexpected inheritance offers Rain an opportunity for a new beginning when she and her family move across the country to the quaint beach community of Turtle Bay, Florida. Determined to make the best ...

#Influenster: #JadoreDessange Hair Care

I recently signed up for Influenster and was SO EXCITED to have the opportunity to try out some free products. Not that free books aren't great, they are, but you can't wear them on your face. Or wash your hair with them. My first VoxBox showed up last week and inside where hair care products by Dessange, all of which you can get at Target.   California Blonde Illuminating Shampoo California Blonde Illuminating Conditioner California Blonde Brass Color Correcting Creme   Facebook: Dessange Paris USA Twitter: @Dessange     ~ My Thoughts ~   Likes : The packaging is pretty. It gave my fine hair body.*   Dislikes: The smell. It's horrible and reminded me of perm solution. It lingers too and still has not gone away even though I've washed my hair with my regular product 3x already.  *It stripped the moisture from my hair which is probably why it felt like it had more body.  Final Verdict: Not the produ...

And she imagined more, she saw what she would do, how she would forget herself, how everything would slip and unloop, like rich ribbon off it's spool. The dream of this held her. She couldn't move."   Sweet baby Valorians in a palace...THIS, THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. ~ PARTICIPATING BLOGGERS ~ Good Ch...
